365 Days Grass-fed & Pasture-raised

Our temperate climate means our organic cows are outdoors in the fresh air and sunlight, grazing on pasture. And it’s not just any grass, we believe a diverse range of pasture species including grasses, legumes and herbs helps to support not only the variety and nutritional profile of our cows diet but also the soil health and biodiversity of our farms.

Organic Certified

We’ve combined the benefits of New Zealand pasture-based dairy farming with all the core principles of organic farming. Which means our farmers support our natural resources, biodiversity, soil health and animal wellbeing. To meet the requirements of our organic certifications our farmers use natural solutions instead of antibiotics, synthetic pesticides and fertilisers, and are non-GMO.

Prioritising Animal Wellbeing

Cows are at the heart of every dairy farm and their wellbeing is of paramount importance to us. Fonterra’s independently certified Cared for Cows Standard represents our approach to animal wellbeing. It helps to ensure our cows are valued and treated with respect throughout their lives, and that they are healthy, productive, and well cared for.
